Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: DX-88 (ecallantide)
DX-88 (ecallantide) Patients were treated with DX-88 (ecallantide) when they experienced an HAE attack. 30 mg dose of ecallantide given via 3 SC injections; a second 30 mg dose can be administered if needed. Patients were to be assessed until 4 hrs post-dose. Patients were asked to return for 3 follow-up visits: 7 days, 28 days and 90 days post-dose.
solution for SC injection, one 30 mg dose per HAE attack

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Mean Symptom Complex Severity (MSCS) Score at 4 Hrs Post Dosing
Time Frame: 4 hrs post dose after every episode
Mean Symptom Complex Severity (MSCS) score is a validated point-in-time measure of symptom severity. At baseline and 4 hrs, patients rated the severity on a categorical scale (0=normal, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe) for symptoms at each affected anatomical location. Ratings were averaged to obtain the MSCS score. A decrease in MSCS score reflected an improvement in symptoms; clinically meaningful improvement was indicated by a reduction in the score of 0.30 or more.
4 hrs post dose after every episode

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Treatment Outcome Score (TOS) at 4 Hrs Post Dosing, Based on the Patient Assessment of Baseline Severity of Symptoms
Time Frame: 4 hrs post dose after every episode
The Treatment Outcome Score (TOS)is a validated measure of response to therapy. Response assessment for each symptom complex (internal head/neck, stomach/GI, genital/buttocks, external head/neck or cutaneous) was to be weighted based on the severity of symptom complexes at baseline. Severity assessment at baseline was rated on a categorical scale (1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe) for symptoms at each affected symptom complex. Response assessment of each symptom complex post-dosing relative to baseline used a scale (100=significant improvement, 50=improvement, 0=same). The weighted values were used to calculate the composite TOS. A TOS greater than 0 denotes an improvement in symptoms compared with baseline severity.
4 hrs post dose after every episode
Time to Significant Improvement
Time Frame: 15 min - 4 hrs post dose after every episode
Time to significant improvement in overall response based on the period from 15 minutes after dosing through 4 hrs post dosing. Significant improvement was defined as a response of "a lot better or resolved" in the overall response assessment.
15 min - 4 hrs post dose after every episode
